!!! 2.6 KB Dipstick Blown !!!!

[SVPAM]

Hi All,
I have a 2.6 kb in my car
I just swapped the upper pulley to smallest one 2.75
I also have 4lb lower.
I have a built motor and using race gas

Now, Last night I was driving the car 80-100 mph with out boost ( Zero Boost )
I smelled something like burn from the engine
I found the blower dipstick melt !! and the oil exit from the blower !!
Blower was really hot, I checked cooling sys for the blower all was OK
But there is a loose when rotate the blower by my hand and there is a sound like ''cluck cluck'' when you rotate right and then left.
What could be the reason that dipstick blown and the oil goes out ?
Does it mean that Blower need to rebuild ?
I want to open the front cover to check gears and bearings of the blower

Please give me some advices

thanks guys

If your blower got hot enough to melt the SC dipstick tube, I would imagine you would want to check the SC to make sure you did not do some damage.

is that english?

The cap only melt not the TUBE !!

I turned the car off at the same time, and I did not drive the car to the workshop

What do you think the problem that let the oil push the depstick out ????
How about pulley loose ?

Is there a common problem in KB's ?

ttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

 

[ShelbyGuy]

sounds like someone forgot to add oil to the supercharger

or added too much

 

[SVPAM]

How about the loose in the pulley ???

So the tube did not fall into the blower?How much oil did you put into the blower,did you follow KB instruction on oil level when pushing over 20 psi?Ive never heard of this happening,you might want to post this in the KB section on this board.

yo

Hmm what mixes me up is a 2.75 with a 4lb lower. :shrug:
Im running a 2.75 with the factory lower and seeing 22psi.
How much damn boost are you looking for sounds like you spun it way to fast and burned it up. :bash::bash:

I would definitely send the blower back to get rebuilt. How long did you run it without any oil?
